Full Description

January 2015. Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Beauty National Mapping Programme.
Earthworks of multiple abraded trackways of probable medieval to post medieval date are visible on aerial photographs (S1-S8) across the area of heath to the south of Newdelight Walks, Blythburgh. There are several more trackways visible across the heath to the north and east of Newdelight Walks, but these have not been recorded separately since they are largely visible on 1st edition Ordnance Survey mapping.
